The OrdinaryRetinol 0.5% in Squalane, Intermediate Retinol Serum for the Face That Is Anti-Aging and Skin Smoothing, 1 Fl Oz

Absolutely love this stuff it works so good. I’ve been waiting for 3 weeks to write a review so I can fully have it work on my skin and what I can say so far is that I’m in love with it. It doesn’t irritate my skin and it makes my skin nice and shiny. I use this every night in my night routine and “the ordinary” is a premium brand for a good price. You can’t beat getting good quality retinol serum for $10.

Must have product to add to your skin care routine. Works great, feels great and comes with a good applicator. I can definitely see a difference, it’s been 2 weeks and my skin looks great and is very smooth. Overall happy with this purchase.

Light weight with visible results. Minimal skin irritation but if it occurs try the sandwich method. Great price point for the product too as most in similar size go for 40-70% more markup price

The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% in Squalane is a great, gentle option if you’re looking to reduce fine lines and improve skin texture. The retinol works well without being too harsh, and the squalane keeps your skin nice and hydrated. It’s perfect for sensitive or dry skin, but you should start slow to avoid any irritation. A solid, affordable choice if you want to try retinol!

If you're looking for a more affordable option than expensive retinol treatments, you should try this product. I usually don't write reviews, but I wanted to share my positive experience. After just one use, I noticed a big change in my skin. By day four, the blackheads on my nose were gone, and my pores looked smaller—it's almost like magic! I didn't experience any skin irritation. I applied a moisturizer after the retinol dried. I was so impressed that I bought a second one for my daughter. I really appreciate that this product is affordable, making it easy for people on a budget to access!

I’ve never used retinol before. They do say it could cause some peeling, which I did experience to a very minor degree. Just little dry flaking. I only used it every few days after that and it cleared up. It was also fine with moisturizer, but like I said it’s supposed to be normal to experience that, and applying moisturizer took care of it. I didn’t experience any irritation which can also happen to some people.I haven’t had it long, but after a few weeks I’m seeing a bit of a difference.

Just the right strength retinol. Gentle on my skin but still effective.

Texture is oily and leaves my skin greasy
